tupperware packed lunch boxes

Can anyone recommend packed lunch sandwich boxes which don't smell all plasticky and horrible. I normally use bags or greeseproof paper but would love to find something reusable which doesn't taint the food. I'd like them in various sizes for fruit salads and sandwiches etc. Thanks

I use a lock & lock box which comes with a pair of boxes that sit inside the lunch box. Each insert takes up half the space. Once has a divider, so its ideal for grapes on one side and a (small youhurt on the other. Or you can leave one or both out and use the whole box. I got it from Lakeland too.

Washed in soapy water and air dried - no smell. Haven't put anything really smelly in it, like onion, egg or tuna though.

I second the lock & lock boxes. DS1 (who's all fingers and thumbs) even manages to put the lids back on, so his bag's not full of soggy bits when he comes home and the divider boxes save having to wrap fruit/cake separately. He regularly has Tuna sarnies and no smell after 3 years of use.

Don't worry that you don't have a local store - the mail order service is excellent. These people are truly lovely to deal with.
